A federal judge whose son was killed by a disgruntled lawyer at her home called for measures to keep personal information of jurists private in her first public statement since the shooting
“This is a matter of life and death. We cannot just sit back and wait for another tragedy to strike,” U.S. District Court Judge Esther Salas, the first Latina to serve on the District Court of New Jersey, said in a nine-minute video statement. She noted that her family’s attacker easily found her personal information on the internet.
Salas said he had her family’s personal information, including her home address, and used it to target them. Such easy access to information about judges on the internet must end, she said. While the motive for the shooting remained unclear, Hollander once had a case before the judge and had published an online screed filled with misogynistic and racist remarks deriding her ethnicity and career. Hollander was found a day after the shooting in an apparent suicide about 90 miles north of New York City.
